Page 13: Double Extruder Prints Using "Breakaway" Support Material
Double extruder prints using “breakaway” support material The models that require support material to be made can use the second extruder with a specific filament for the realization of the support structures. This material is called “breakaway” due to his behaviour: during the printing binds with the material of the object, but at the end of printing, if it is mechanically solicited, it separates itself in a clear manner from the surfaces to which it adhered supporting them. -
